Keiichi Tanaami
Keiichi Tanaami was born in Tokyo in 1936 and graduated from Musashino Art University. He is a lone artist who has been actively crossing the boundaries of media and genres in his creative activities. While he made a spectacular debut as a designer while still in school, it is not widely known that he also energetically produced fine art works from that time onward, participating in the Yomiuri Independents Exhibition and holding solo exhibitions at Muramatsu Gallery and Tsubaki Modern Gallery. After graduation in the mid-1960s, he was baptized into psychedelic culture and Pop Art, and his creative activities have expanded from animation works to silk screens, cartoon-like illustrations, collages, experimental films, paintings, and three-dimensional works to the present day. Especially inspired by his encounter with Andy Warhol in the 1960s, he has continued to experimentally challenge the major issues facing contemporary art today, such as "art and design," "art and products," and "the relationship between the everyday and beauty," while using the design methodology of "editing" to the present day. In the past few years, he has also been invited to the MoMA( New York), the Walker Art Center( Minneapolis), the Art Institute of Chicago, M+( Hong Kong), the National Portrait Gallery( Washington), the Hamburger Bahnhof Museum of Contemporary Art, Hamburger Bahnhof (, Berlin ), and the National Portrait Gallery, Washington (, and the Museum of Modern Art, Hamburger Bahnhof ) have decided to acquire new works by Tanaami.
Oliver Payne
Oliver Payne graduated from the Faculty of Arts at Kingston University in England, and since the late 1990s has been a collaborating artist with Nick Ralph, creating video works and installations based on street culture such as skating, hardcore music, punk, and graffiti. In 2003, he was awarded the Golden Lion (, the Best ) Prize at the 50th Venice Biennale in the category of Young Artists, and in 2004, he had a solo exhibition at Kunsthalle Zurich. In 2004, he had a solo exhibition at Kunsthalle Zurich, and in 2006, he had a solo exhibition at Serpentine Gallery (, London ). He has had an unusually brilliant career as a young artist. Since 2009, Payne and Ralph have both moved on to work as solo artists, with Payne continuing to create works based on subcultures, particularly video games and the punk rock scene. Payne continues to create works based on subcultures, particularly video games and the punk rock scene. Oliver Payne's work begins with a suspicion of the world we perceive or accept as common knowledge. In his recent performance "Chill Out," Payne asks participants to remain quietly in place, shutting off all cell phones and Internet access. It is as if he were practicing Buddhist zazen, but at the same time, it reflects a respect for the anarcho-pacifist lifestyle of the community that follows the legendary punk rock band CRASS. Or, Payne's past collages ( Greek sculptures from old art books, which he designed and affixed with bullet stickers inspired by the Japanese TV game "Shuryo Bachi ( Donpachi )," are a reflection of Western civilization's own The work ) represents the overwhelming dominance of violence symbolized in Japanese video games over the icons that Western civilization sees as symbols of its identity. It suggests that the authority of uniform art is, in fact, delusional.
